anthropoda Flashcards
The appendage is very stable and requires little brain power to move
jointed appendage/leg
The phylum containing
grasshoppers.
anthropoda
Entry point into tracheal Tube system.
spiracle
the grasshopper crushing jaw
is a mandible
fusion of head and thorax
cephalothorax
from insectus, meaning “cut into sections”
insecta
Excretry structures in a
grasshopper.
malphigian tubules
‘Front lip’ of a grasshopper.
labrum
an ‘outer’ skeleton
exoskeleton
has lobster and shrimp
crustacea
secretes digestive enzymes into the stomach
gastric caeca
what is maxilla
help to move food into the mouth
section contains the major organs in the insect
abdomen
animals in this class really have less than 100 legs
Chilopoda
the ‘blood cavity’ containing the major organs
haemocoel
the rear lip of a grasshopper
what is a labium
shedding of an exoskeleton to allow growth
molting
posses pedipalps and chelicera
arachnida
structure moving oxygen to the cells of a grasshopper
tracheal tube network
the grasshopper mouthparts containing sensory palps
maxilla and labium
Anthropoda
anthro=joint, pada=foot
anthropoda key features
- exoskeleton (outer, skeletone)
-composed of chitin and proven
-strong/waterproof - Segmented body plan
-development of special appendages with joint
parts
4.Jointed legs and appendages
5.high degree of cephalization
anthropoda divided into distinct parts
- head: mouth and sense organs
- thorax: walking legs, wings, and part of digestive system, compound eye
- Abdomen: Major internal organs, reproductive organs
- Cephlothorax: head and thorax
arthropoda can
transition to land -appendages, development of wings -metamorphosis: -transition between body forms Symbiotic relationships -decomposers -breakdown of dead organisms
